OT: Bills Fans Not Pleased with New Stadium

[Bill Lee]

I don't understand how it cost so much, looks cheap tbh. I've been in the old one and it didn't have these issues.

Since 'The Ralph' was built, the learned their fans jump through tables, so it's natural that the team decided they had to protect the fans from themselves.

The Billdoes have no one else to blame but themselves.

The Big Dig was better than this.

The Big Dig is marvelous. I couldn't imagine what Boston would be like without it.

Lots of money vanished, but what do you expect, everyone in Boston is on the take.

Everyone paying tolls on the Mass Pike is paying down the money the grifters stole.

They get to play on grass there. Dunno why we can't at Gillette.

The Krafts stood on their heads trying to make natural grass work as a field for Gillette. They took everything from drainage to under field heating into account . Thought of everything but the field's exposure to sunlight when it shifts in fall. Grass needs sun, who knew?
The 2006 Mud Bowl loss to the Jete was the final straw, the grass was gone and turf installed before the next home game.

In that clip I posted of Josh Allen running out of the tunnel I said the video board looked small. Can it even be read from the opposite site?

Orchard Park NY is in a really bad spot for snow and wind. They really should have built it as an indoor stadium or with a retractable roof

Kinda amazing that after all of the *****ing here about the major updates to the video boards at Gillette, those big screens are now a point of pride for us.

I remember people being frustrated with Gillette, but that stadium wasn't $2.2 billion:

It wasn't $2.2 billion, and we didn't have to pay for it.

And even if they were frustrated with it, it was such an upgrade over Sullivan Stadium that it didn't really matter.
